The war was over before it even began.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare may have a smaller base of players than Call of Duty games do on average (thanks to the series’ sales beginning to decline), but it also has a more engaged base of players. An engaged base which is discovering all sorts of tricks and techniques to the underlying gameplay in the game.

Like quickscoping before it, the new technique that has been discovered in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will likely be very controversial- but then, all these advanced techniques that often border on being exploits are that way (anyone remember Wavedashing in Super Smash Bros. Melee?). The new technique is called ‘blackscoping,’ and it yields a perfect accuracy rate for sniper shots. It’s astonishing, really, but the Youtube video that you see embedded above will explain exactly how it works.

What do you think about this technique? Is it legitimate, or is it indeed an exploit? Will you be utilizing it?
